You place a box weighing 200.2 N on a inclined plane that makes a 37.1 angle with the horizontal. Compute the component of the gravitational force acting down on the inclined plane. Answer in Units of N

Answer:
141.56 N.
Explanation:
Data given:
Weight of the box= 200.2 N
Angle with the horizontal= 37.1°
Solution;
Gravitational force on the box, [tex]F_g[/tex]= weight of the box
                                      = 200.2 N
Component of gravitational force along plane = [tex]F_g * sin[/tex]( ∅ )
                                          = W * (sin∅)
                                          = (200.1) * sin (37.1°)
                                          = 141.56 N
